Microsoft should have a certification program for software that messes around with kernel modules that could cause a BSOD. I guess they already do this for hardware drivers.

Once software is effecting a certain number of endpoints the vendor has to prove they are testing sufficiently.

I would strongly oppose such restrictions. Of course I use Linux so I can install whatever kernel.modules I want to and no one can stop me :)

Hot take, but I think you should build from source to be able to modify the kernel. Kernel extensions don't have their place in our modern world.
